What’s a weird quirk your baby has?

The moment in the post above — What’s a weird quirk your baby has — is one of those small everyday scenes that says a lot about life with cats.

Cats spend an unreasonable amount of their lives doing things that make no sense to anyone but themselves. The cat in the post above is participating in that long, proud tradition — frozen mid-yawn, mid-sprawl, mid-decision, in a pose nobody asked for but everyone is glad to see.

Behavioral scientists have a soft spot for these moments because they show how much personality lives behind the predator instincts. Each cat develops a small library of weird signature moves: the flop, the loaf, the deeply concerned chirp at a passing bug. Once you live with a cat long enough, you can usually predict the moment about half a second before it happens.

The internet loves these photos for a reason. They remind us that a small, deadly hunter is also, somehow, a creature that will trip over its own paws and stare at the ceiling for ten minutes for no reason at all.
